Good beer and good atmosphere: a pleasant place to have a pint, or two, or three... Food (in my experience) rather ordinary -- not bad, but certainly not for gourmets.

Old style single L-shaped room with traditional decor and furniture. The Devereux is in a courtyard away from any main rod and would seem to be mostly populated by legal types. I do recall in the late 80s and early 90s though this was the haunt for some of my friends from Arthur Andersen just up in Arundel St.

Although it's a nice enough pub with a decent beer selection I prefer one or two of its competitors in the immediate vicinity.

Very nice pub just off the beaten track. In the upstairs room the smell of the kitchen was a bit too invasive though and not good if you are not dining yourself. I'd have preferred it to be more enclosed. The food delivery system ssemed a bit haphazard too. Very good beers though. On the drinks front I can't fault it.

This is a decent sized L-shaped pub that had Pride, Greene King IPA and Broadside all available during my visit alongside three guest ales. There is also a standard draught range and my Guinness was well served.

There was no background music and the plasma was showing Sky News, which was muted.

I thought that the staff were friendly and that this is a good pub, but it doesn’t really stand out of the crowd in an area of good pubs.

Late afternoon pint was well rewarded with really friendly and engaging bar staff who offered samples of ale before deciding what to choose. Keen to know your views as well. Mine a light Everard's number which was fresh and just right for a July afternoon. View from outside deceives also, as this is a roomy and spacious boozer. Imagine tone changes with the arrival of the legal pin stripes after five, having made their millions across the road, but a late afternoon visit is the perfect time to experience a wonderfully well kept and friendly pub.
